&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; For what do you need glib ?<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; xmms needs ORbit, that needs glib, and AFAIK these are still<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; maintained apps, and xmms is still a needed buildrequire needed by<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; kdenetwork (its optional but still exists), so i dont understand the<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; hurry to drop these applications.<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; But what feature does it provide for kdenetwork? You can use e.g. audacious<br>
&gt;&gt; (gtk2 version) instead of xmms itself. I don&#39;t know how compatible audacious<br>
&gt;&gt; is, though.<br>

&gt;<br>
&gt; But this isnt the main issue, these packages should be provided by<br>
&gt; mageia (they are provided by the main linux distros), if the packages<br>
&gt; were no longer maintained than i would agree that wouldnt be needed to<br>
&gt; put them available in mageia, but thats not the case.<br>

<br>
if you look on fedora :<br>
<br>
xmms-1.2.11-12.20071117cvs.fc15.src.rpm<br>
<br>
since 2007 this is only rebuilded and fixed for the build but we can&#39;t<br>
call this &quot;maintained&quot; upstream.<br>
<br>
<br>
Gentoo have removed xmms<br>
Ubuntu have removed xmms too<br>
<br>
So please stop FUDing to &quot;force&quot; to push the packages you want.<br>
